Electrical work in Waverly
Every one of the nine points we checked in Waverly falls in Lansing Board of Water & Light's territory on the state's utility map, which makes the municipal utility, not Consumers or DTE, the likely one for your meter. Confirm by address. That matters for chargers: BWL lists a Second Meter Installation rebate up to $1,000 and PEV Off-Peak Savers up to $500, and the Consumers and DTE programs would not apply.
Ask BWL what is open before you plan an EV charger around it. Waverly has no row in the Statewide Jurisdiction List because it is a census-designated place.
